You may use my songs on SHORT REELS ONLY provided that proper credit is given by mentioning my channel, @IndieStereoYT Title: Chasing Rain Artist: The Westbound Strings A heartfelt country ballad about loving someone who will never fully love you back. “Chasing Rain” tells the story of quiet devotion, unspoken feelings, and the pain of being just a “friend” while carrying a lifetime of emotion inside. Set in a dim bar room haze and late-night memories, this song captures the ache of unrequited love — when every glance means everything, but never means enough. If you’ve ever loved someone in silence, this one’s for you. 🎧 Lyrics below: Your laugh still lives in this old barroom haze Like smoke that won’t leave after closing late You sit across the room with somebody new And I keep pretending I ain’t watching you You call me “friend” and it cuts like a knife ’Cause I’ve loved you quietly most my life Every little touch, every midnight call You never knew you were my all And loving you feels like chasing rain Holding fire and praying it don’t fade You smile at me like I’m easy to lose While I’m breaking trying not to love you I know your coffee, your favorite songs The way you get quiet when something’s wrong I’d cross every county line tonight Just to be the reason you’re alright But your heart’s somewhere I can’t reach No matter how close you get to me And that’s the cruelest kind of truth Standing beside you with nothing to lose And loving you feels like chasing rain Holding fire and praying it don’t fade You look at me like I’m passing through While I’m building my whole world around you Maybe someday I’ll finally leave Stop finding hope in small things you mean But tonight your name still sounds like home Even if I’m loving you alone Yeah, loving you’s the kind of hurt That never lets a man let go first. ----- #CountryMusic #SadCountrySong #HeartbreakSong #UnrequitedLove #CountryBallad #OriginalSong #LyricsVideo #SadSong #EmotionalMusic #CountryLyrics #LoveSong #BreakupSong #AcousticCountry #StorySong #NewMusic “This song was created with the help of AI tools.”
